We've got a school with a 40 limit outside of it, we're trying to get the limit reduced but get told its safe as it is.
I think the first step to enforcing a speed limit is to make sure everybody knows without a doubt what the limit is, limit signs on both sides of the road as you enter and repeater signs on lamp posts.
I don't like speed bumps much, I don't think they work, they just damage my suspension. Chicanes, if properly installed do work, if properly installed you have to slow up to go round them, even if theres nothing coming. I've only ever seen that once though, and I drive over 1500 miles a week.
